Every healthy diet needs a little bit of a treat — and luckily, this treat is good for you! Carrots bring a dose of sweetness, as well as beta-carotene, vitamin C and fiber. Bananas are also full of fiber, and cinnamon is a natural anti-inflammatory. Imagine walnuts as the “cake” part of this smoothie, providing a dose of nutty sweetness and Omega-3s, as well as potent cancer-fighting compounds.
